Work is scheduled at night across seven downtown corridors

Roanoke says milling and paving is scheduled nightly from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. through mid-November, weather permitting. The listed corridors include portions of Salem, Campbell, Kirk and Church avenues and 1st, 2nd and 3rd streets.

The city says temporary no-parking notices will be posted in advance and vehicles can be towed from construction zones. The notice does not assign a guaranteed night to every block, so posted signs remain controlling.

Plan for access changes, noise and extra travel time

The city says local access to residences and businesses will continue, while residents and visitors can use city garages or other available street parking when restrictions are active. Downtown residents and businesses may hear overnight construction noise.

Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians should allow extra time, use alternate routes when practical and watch for crews and equipment. Weather or field conditions can change the sequence without making an older schedule current.
